Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 230 Promise to be good to you

Li Xiang left the mansion after receiving the imperial decree conferring marriage, and went straight to Prince Yong's residence in Beijing.

 Taifei Lan and Princess Yongqin had also just received the marriage decree from Emperor Ming. Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were extremely satisfied with the marriage. The two of them were sitting together and talking about this matter. When they heard that the uncle-to-be, Li Xiang, came to visit, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were stunned.

Li Xiang was warmly invited into Prince Yong's Mansion. He entered the front hall, met Princess Lan and Princess Yong and respectfully saluted and said hello.

Mrs. Lan, her mother-in-law, and her daughter-in-law were very fond of Li Xiang, and now he has become their prospective son-in-law. As the saying goes, "The more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him." Now, Mrs. Lan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are even more fond of him. The more I look at Li Xiang, the more I feel that he is a perfect match for his little princess.

They are really a pair of beautiful people like a golden boy and a beautiful girl.

After greeting Li Xiang, he said politely: "My grandson is here unexpectedly, so please bear with me if you are inconvenient."

Concubine Lan looked at the young man she liked and said with a smile: "We are all a family, Brother Xiang doesn't have to be exposed to outsiders like this."

Li Xiang didn't show off in front of his elders, and said straight to the point: "To be honest, I came here this time to have a few words with my cousin. I know it's not polite, but I have to say it myself." Make it clear to your cousin."

With that said, he stood up and bowed deeply to Concubine Lan and Princess Yongqin: "Please forgive me, grandma and aunt."

After hearing Li Xiang's decent words, Mrs. Lan smiled and replied, "You are cousins. If we meet and talk, there will be no fault between you."

Princess Yongqin also replied kindly: "Brother Xiang, please wait a moment. I will order someone to invite Pingyang to come over."

Li Xiang bowed deeply to the two elders again: "Thank you to the Queen's grandmother and aunt. I will just say a few words to my cousin here and then leave. Please trouble my aunt to invite my cousin over."

 After a while, Pingyang was invited over. Concubine Lan and Concubine Yongqin winked at each other and withdrew knowingly.

Pingyang has secretly been in love with Li Xiang ever since she met him at the eldest princess's mansion that day. Now that the Holy Emperor has granted him a marriage, a young girl's heart is like being dipped in a jar of honey.

Just like a girl immersed in the fantasy of love, the always lively and generous little Princess Pingyang was still a little shy in front of Li Xiang. The little girl glanced at her fiancé with her head half lowered, and shyly whispered: "Cousin, please sit down. "

Li Xiang was much more calm. He raised his hand politely and made a "please" gesture: "My cousin, sit down too."

 Pingyang leaned forward and sat down on the chair. She lowered her head deeply, and her hibiscus-like face was as red as a half-ripe peach.

Li Xiang cleared his throat and asked, "Does my cousin know about the Holy Father's decree on marriage?"

 Pingyang nodded slightly and whispered as shyly as a mosquito: "I already know."

Li Xiang scratched his head in embarrassment and said to Pingyang: "Although the Holy Father has granted marriage, it is really rude for me to come to see you rashly like this. There is just one thing that I have to make clear to my cousin."

After hearing what Li Xiang said, Pingyang raised his eyes and glanced at his serious expression, wondering: "What does my cousin want to tell me?" Li Xiang said frankly to Pingyang: "To be honest, I made it two years ago I got married to a maid in my courtyard, but our town government has family rules that unmarried men are not allowed to have concubines, so the girl was sent to Zhuangzi."

 After hearing what Li Xiang said, Pingyang asked doubtfully: "Does my cousin want to take her back now?"

Li Xiang replied: "I can't take her back before we get married."

Now Pingyang was even more confused: "Then why did my cousin tell me this?"

Li Xiang replied: "Since the Holy Spirit has granted marriage, we will be husband and wife from now on. I want to tell you about this in advance. The decree of marriage has just come down, and only our two people know about it. If you are concerned about this matter, I don't want to delay my cousin." As for my future, I begged my mother to petition the Holy Father and find a way to cancel the marriage."

Men from powerful families are expected to have several concubines. Most unmarried men will have several concubines in their first house. As long as they don’t cause any concubines or concubines before the wife comes in, or spoil the concubine after marrying the wife. As for wives, in this world, no matter how many concubines a man has, it is not a problem.

As the daughter of a prince, Pingyang was not surprised by such things. In their palace, his father and brothers kept many concubines. Moreover, in order to show their virtuousness, her mother and sisters-in-law would visit her from time to time. Looking for a satisfactory woman to come in.

 A little girl who is immersed in love, her mind is filled with the other person, and she naively thinks that the other person’s heart must also be filled with her, so how can she truly understand the sorrow and helplessness of sharing the same husband with another woman after marriage.

After hearing what Li Xiang said, Pingyang not only didn't mind Jiao Xing's matter at all, but actually felt that a straightforward person like Li Xiang was more trustworthy.

She smiled slightly at Li Xiang and said slowly: "It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. My father, the king, took two concubines and four concubines. Two of them were in He was admitted into the palace before he married his mother, but this does not affect the love between his father and his mother at all. There are really a few people who do not allow men to have concubines before marriage, as is the case in your Zhenguo Palace."

She looked at Li Xiang and replied frankly: "I won't mind this matter."

Li Xiang felt embarrassed after hearing Pingyang's words. He scratched his head at a loss. He, who had always been gentle, showed a childish look in front of Pingyang. He hesitated and couldn't say a complete sentence: "Actually, I With her, she actually...that"

Pingyang was amused by Li Xiang's silly look and covered her mouth with a smile. She half-joked, "I don't mind this matter, and my cousin shouldn't mind it either. You can just take her back later."

Li Xiang's handsome face turned red after hearing Pingyang's cheerful words, and he hesitated and said: "Thank you cousin, I can promise you that except for this girl, I will never accept any other woman from now on."

Pingyang listened obediently to these words. She blushed, glanced at Li Xiang and said, "Although I don't mind if you take that girl back in the future, you have to promise not to spoil your concubine or destroy your wife in the future."

After hearing this, Li Xiang quickly promised, "This cousin can rest assured, that girl is the most understanding person, and I will not do what you said."

He hesitated with a half-red face: "Anyway, if my cousin can tolerate that girl, I will definitely treat my cousin well."

Pingyang glanced at Li Xiang shyly, lowered his head and said, "I have taken note of this, cousin. If you can't do it in the future, I will talk to you based on the promise you made to me today."
